Swole Mite Yeah I don’t think he’s played enough with either of the droids to do a full hero ranking yet

[@MadHashashin]

Right?? Swany said that BB 8 was vastly superior to him. Every single HvV and CS I see, BB9E is melting the poor droid and stunning heroes and soldiers like crazy. His stun is insanely annoying and powerful.

[@AlejandroGarcia-vo6pg]

MadHashashin Agreed. Most people overlook the stun because he doesn’t do high damage outright

[@gligurr]

[@papapalpsinthecut4850]

I don’t know why but I feel as if I’m the only one who enjoys playing BB9-E especially in both a support role and a more aggressive one like you said, and I’m sure he’ll get a buff which will make him even more usefull

[@nezromightyroc6321]

Everyone says BB-8 is better and although I definitely agree in some situations, I think BB-9E has a much easier time against lightsaber users thanks to his stun. Not only is a good BB-9E player able to beat a hero 1v1 but in HvV his stun every 4 seconds makes an easy target against your 3 teammates

[@sphrcl.]

He didn't

He is now one of my favorite villains. I play hvv exclusively and can go 0 deaths in some games. He won't ever be the top player, but your teammates will appreciate you stunning people. He can just be so swift and nimble that I've seen people go for just me because of how annoying he can be. If you are ever in a situation where you are being ganged, just use the rotation to knock them back, and go find your teammates right away.

[@FrostDK98]

I wish he got points for enemies killed revealed by his smoke ability like how rey gets points from enemies killed during insight. Itd help him with point gain greatly

[@anthony9845]

This is probably the most needed for me, I'm pretty decent with the other heros but I watched them just for the tips, but this video in particular I really needed, thank you I appreciate it.

[@camerondurham3923]

I've honestly been having so much fun with this guy and bb8. I love how fast they are and the shock effect they have, also how annoying they are with that tiny hit box. I think they are deeply underrated

[@JohnSapato]

3:02 Lol, that rebel started falling in a circle motion, as if being sucked by a tornado! 😂

[@kissinuk]

Also how to not suck: don't quit a game near the end just because you think you're about to lose. Your stats don't matter, the team does. Oh, and learn how to play with the AT-TE before you get in it on Geonosis...

[@Oronjalllo]

The cooldown of abilities from 9E right ability does work. My Vader last night was getting his saber throw in like 6 seconds and the other 2 abilities recharging faster as well. It doesnt have the spinning icon to let you know like BB8 or Finn or the officer

[@Squire2222]

I'm late to the party here, but after watching this I gave BB9E another go and was blown away. The stun every 4 seconds thing was a game changer. I had a good game on Kamino and decided my goal would be to get 1st in a GA game with BB9E. My very next game I completely dominated a game on Tattoine, repelled every hero, and finished top with a killstreak of 20. That's at level 7 without a good card set up. BB9E is a dark horse when you understand its mechanics, DICE really don't get the credit they deserve for this game

[@axy7649]

I once yeeted 3 enemy heroes in HvV with Vader's help. It was so satisfying because I only get assists as BB-9E in that mode.

[@ravimanne8148]

A little side tip you can actually shock people when peeking a corner with your shock prod when they can't see you. This can also be done with his center ability so by utilizing cover you make yourself even harder to hit (sometimes literally impossible to be hit since there is a wall in the way) and you can damage your opponents. It requires a ton of precision and corner peeking though but I would recommend trying it out. All DICE has to do for these heroes is 1 make dead eye not instantly kill bb9 and 2 fix charge up. I would like charge up to instead be a 50 health buff to bb9e and his allies, reduces cooldowns of allies, and takes blasters into the golden state during ability.

[@anthonyprice5708]

Another good thing to mention is that both BB8 and BB9e recover from throws and pulls (i.e. Luke's repulse, Anakin's Pull, etc.) much faster than other heroes due to not having an animation for standing up. As soon as they land they can almost immediately dodge.

[@drewchamberlin1301]

Great episode man, helped me a lot

[@route77productions]

I've noticed that you can as BB-9E and BB8 1v1 an Anakin or Vader by stunning/shocking/roll charge, jumping and evading in unexpected directions. Sadly BB9E and BB8 can easily be countered as well. BB-9E is countered by Chewbacca's stun followed by grand slam and furious bowcaster, can be lasered by Finn's Deadeye, will always lose a spin fight with BB-8 unless you shock and evade. Rey's mind trick makes it difficult to get away unless you have shock spin available. BB-8 is easily countered by Vader's grip, Palpatine, Kylo Ren's freeze and Dooku's expose weakness.

[@jamesvan2201]

Very informative. I thought bb-9e was bugged. I didn't know his shock stun had a 4 second cool down. That will help me because instead of running around trying to stun multiple people at once I can now run in, stun and run out until the cool down is finished and run back in. I kept dying all the time because he was only stunning one person and hitting the others but not stunning them. Now I'll know to stun and then get out of Dodge.
